Af late!

as the title says my af is now 2 days late. I am like clockwork since coming off contraception over 6 months ago so this is strange for me. I've had a few early pregnancy symptoms the last couple of weeks and I did test at 14dpo which was negative (may have been too early) I am petrified to test again now my af is actually late. has anyone had negative tests before af was late and went on to have bfp? thanks x

I had negative tests until I was 1 day late and then it was a very faint positive. I am now 15+6! Good luck

mlt93 · 19/03/2021 10:45

so there's still hope! I don't know what it is I just can't bring myself to test because I know sometimes if your like clockwork you can be a few days out - congratulations on your pregnancy I hope it goes well! 😊

I had almost 2 weeks of negatives after my period was due. Son is a healthy 8 year old 😅 12 week scan put me back 2 weeks so must've ovulated right before my period was due! Xx

mlt93 · 19/03/2021 12:35

that's so crazy! its mad how different everyone is even though we all go on the suggested time frame x

Hoping for positive news for you OP.

I've literally just posted a similar thread - I'm 5 days late (regular as clockwork normally) but have done 2 tests, 2 days apart and both are BFN! Sad still no sign of AF though!

Let us know how you get on when you test!

mlt93 · 19/03/2021 13:56

I'm hoping for positive news for you too! fingers crossed 😊 its just so strange isn't it, with my first 2 I didn't test till the day af was due and about 4 days after just because I was late, this time I've seemed to do nothing but symptom spot! xx

@cherrytreecottage have you booked for the docs yet? a blood test may show bfp?

No not yet. Wasn't sure if it was too soon for that so thought I may wait a few more days and if still no sign of AF, then book an appt. X

mlt93 · 19/03/2021 14:06

I'm sure I read somewhere that they class it as late 7 days or over, but I did manage to get in before at 4 days late to have bloods done, I suppose the longer you leave it the better the chance! x

mlt93 · 19/03/2021 14:15

so I've just tested and bfn! on a cheapie on plus not fmu so probably a bad idea all together!

I did this initially, it's so hard having the patience isn't it!! Hopefully you'll get a BFP with a FMU!
mlt93 · 19/03/2021 15:43

it really is! let me know how you get on with your testing, I'm going to leave it until Monday now and buy a fr to see if AF hasn't appeared x

Hey! Also 5 days late and so far just getting BFN. The last few days I've felt nauseous and my tummy feels tight like it's preparing itself (I already have a 3 yo son). I've been using cheapy sticks which worked before but nothing yet this time. I'm really hoping for a BFP soon, got my fingers crossed for all you ladies too!! x

mlt93 · 19/03/2021 22:34

hey! ah it's so frustrating isn't it, I've had nausea too! pain on right side by hip then switching to left sometimes (like a tugging stretching pain) and the vains in my boobs are just ridiculous, I hate this waiting game, hopefully we get our bfps soon! sending good luck your way 😊 x

WingingItEveryDay7 · 21/03/2021 09:09

AF is still a no show, now 7 days late and still no BFP! I've ordered some clear blue tests as the cheapy ones I have (which worked with my son) seem to have had real bad reviews lately so I'm wondering if it's a bad batch....

Anyone else had a BFP? I'd love to hear some good news right now! x

Mrsbg1990 · 21/03/2021 10:00

@mlt93 I am currently getting BFP on frer tests only but BFN on the pound shop cheapies. Get yourself a frer and let us know how you get on. Good luck x

fx for your bfp on the clear blue! I tested fmu yesterday on a cheapie from tesco, freedom I think they're called, but bfn still, 4 days late now which is just so unusual and symptoms are progressing too, same I'd love to know if anyone else has had their bfp! x

congratulations on your bfp! 😊 I have tested on frer at 14dpo but negative, maybe too early? didn't use fmu either! the freedom £1 I have atm have got really bad reviews of giving false positives and I had a clear negative so maybe they're just rubbish all round! Will be purchasing a frer next week some time I think x

how is everyone? has anyone had their BFP yet? I've tested today on a clear blue ultra early test and it was neg, although the test colour was all over the place, it looked nothing like it did on the picture. I'm so confused, 5 days late now, I have a blood test booked in for tomorrow, I just want to know now so I can move forward! x

Hey! Still waiting for either AF or BFP... 8 days late now. I looked back on previous cycles and the longest cycle I had back when trying in 2017 for my son was 40 days, which is tomorrow for my current one. Still feeling very nauseous... I'll give it a few more days before testing again. If still negative I'll have to call the doctors to see what they say. I just need to know now!! Fx for your BFP from the doctors!!

fingers crossed that you have a late implanter! hopefully you'll get your bfp sooner rather than later, but i know what you mean I just want an outcome now, please let me know how you get on! 😊 my test I have taken has turned to a faint positive. not sure if its cos its been left for too long? I looked around 5 mins after taking it (I must of only looked at it a minute then just thought ah negative) I'll post a pic below!

(have just done another one and that is definitely negative, don't know what's going on!)

Af late!

That definitely looks positive to me, I really hope it is!! I've got those same tests and they say anything you see after 10 minutes is to be disregarded so I think 5 minutes is fine!! Did you take the second with fmu? If too diluted you won't get the right result.

I'm feeling so rough today. Glad my little man just wants to sit and play play doh today!! 😂 x

I didn't take either with fmu as was up and out early for school run today and grabbed them on the way back, I took the second one about an hour and a half after that one above, I should really stop being so impatient and just wait till fmu, very worried its an evap line, overthinker is my middle name lol!

oh no I hope you're feeling better soon! I feel like I've been hit by a bus lol luckily my 2 are in school so I've had abit of time to chill x

I don't think it's an evap line!! It has colour to it!!
